Presented is a high-grade complete set of 1971 Topps consisting of 752 different cards plus all nine variations (#42, 123, 206, 265, 306, two 369, and two 619) required for a complete master set, entirely graded and encapsulated by PSA. The black, flush-to-the-border design makes this issue particularly challenging to collect in extremely high grade. This set consists of thirty NM-MT 8s, thirty-one NM+ 7.5s, and 700 NM 7s. PSA Grading Composite: NM-MT 8 (30 cards): 16, 59, 80, 105, 120, 132, 163, 168, 206, 218, 227, 240, 244, 261, 282, 306, 313, 317, 326, 366, 369, 375, 439, 464, 474, 475, 486, 502, 517, and 629. NM+ 7.5 (31 cards): 23, 29, 86, 111, 149, 151, 166, 187, 193, 209, 260, 289, 308, 309, 332, 338, 343, 392, 398, 418, 442, 470, 473, 548, 590, 608, 621, 666, 684, 739, and 742. NM 7 (700 cards): Including #5 Munson, 20 Jackson, 26 Blyleven RC, 100 Rose, 117 Simmons RC, 160 Seaver, 250 Bench, 341 Garvey RC, 400 Aaron, 513 Ryan, 525 Banks, 530 Yastrzemski, 550 Killebrew, 570 Palmer, 600 Mays, 625 Brock, 630 Clemente, 640 F. Robinson, and 709 Baylor/Baker RC. This is an extraordinary complete set of one of the most condition-sensitive of all card sets from any era. The grading fees alone to encapsulate 761 cards would literally be thousands of dollars! A tremendous opportunity to acquire a high-grade complete master set of this classic 1971 Topps baseball set, entirely graded by PSA. The total SMR value for the assigned grades is $13,839. Total: 761 cards (complete set of 752 plus nine variations). The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot. Opening Bid $2,500.
